About This Quiz

Andy Williams is famous for singing, "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year," but do you know what holiday he was talking about? Christmas, of course! With lyrics like "parties for hosting" and "marshmallows for toasting," Williams captured the very essence of the Christmas spirit with this song. But this magical day isn't just about gifts, mistletoes or jingle bells, because the tasty food plays a festive role as well!

Unlike Thanksgiving, Christmas doesn't really have set "rules" when it comes to the menu. Turkey is often served, but prime rib, steak, ham, beef stroganoff and even pheasant are all favorites too. You may also find stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce and green beans on a holiday table as well. Christmas also focuses on more sweet treats than Thanksgiving, especially with desserts like fudge, cookies, gingerbread and pudding. Even certain beverages get their own magical spin, such as peppermint hot chocolate, holiday punch and cinnamon-spiced hot apple cider. But no matter what you love to indulge in during the holidays, we all have our "food weaknesses" that brings out our inner Christmas cheer! It's now time to find out what your favorite dish is with this magical food quiz!
